Roasted Vegetable Soup recipe
Need a healthy and flavor-packed dinner recipe? This Roasted Vegetable Soup, made with kale and white beans, is hearty, delicious, easy to make, and bursts with flavor. Hearty root vegetables roasted with rosemary and olive oil until sweet and tender and then simmered in a chicken stock along with kale, beans, and Parmesan rind for even more flavor. Crushed red pepper flakes add just the right amount of heat. Finish each bowl off with Parmesan cheese shavings and serve with toasted bread for a delicious dinner the whole family will enjoy.
For this recipe, I use 2 cups carrots, 2 cups parsnips, 2 cups celery root, 1 yellow onion, and a head of garlic. If you want to try something different, you can substitute any root vegetable of your choice. Alternatives that would work well here include rutabagas, rainbow carrots, and turnips. This veggie-forward soup tastes even better the next day, so you can make it a day in advance. A tip: Roast one extra head of garlic to spread on fried sourdough toast. Delicious to dunk into your bowl of soup – just make sure you have plenty of toast. It’s comfort food at its finest!
